Solution

To solve this problem, we need to follow these steps:

  1. First, we need to find out how many shares the company can buy back with 67,000.Wedothisbydividingthetotalamountofmoneythecompanyhasforrepurchasingbythecurrentshareprice.So,67,000. We do this by dividing the total amount of money the company has for repurchasing by the current share price. So, 67,000 / $48.24 = approximately 1388 shares.

  2. Next, we subtract the number of shares that will be repurchased from the total number of outstanding shares to find the new total number of shares. So, 470,000 - 1388 = 468,612 shares.

  3. Finally, we calculate the new share price by dividing the company's total market value by the new total number of shares. The total market value is the current share price multiplied by the total number of outstanding shares. So, (48.24470,000)/468,612=approximately48.24 * 470,000) / 468,612 = approximately 48.38.

So, the share price after the repurchase will be $48.38.
